Aachi Madras Sambar Powder is a spice blend for the everyday sambar of Chennai homes and tiffin rooms, the tamarind and lentil stew served with rice, idli and dosa. Coriander and red chilli lead, with black pepper and cumin for warmth, fenugreek for a gentle bitterness, turmeric for colour and asafoetida for depth. Red lentils are ground into the blend and salt is already included. It comes in a 100g carton packed in India. Browse more blends in our Sambar Powder range.
How to use it
Following the pack, pressure cook 150g of toor dal and keep it aside. Heat one and a half tablespoons of oil, add half a teaspoon of mustard seeds, then one diced onion or 12 to 15 peeled shallots, a green chilli and curry leaves, and saute well. Add one and a half cups of chopped vegetables, a tomato and one tablespoon of the powder and mix. Add salt to taste and three tablespoons of tamarind juice, then cook with the dal for 15 minutes. Garnish with chopped coriander and serve with steamed rice, idli or dosa; it serves 6 to 8. Drumstick, aubergine, okra and pumpkin all suit it, and as the blend already has salt, taste before adding more.
